That sounds very sensible and good for you for taking care of you, first, in order to be there for your son.:-) By the time he gets to scooting around, crawling and then walking and getting into everything, you'll find a lot of exercise comes with just keeping up with him. I never had any problems with losing pregnancy weight when my kids were born...they each worked it off of me and I had a blast whilst doing so! It is REALLY good oyu have scheduled a babysitter and yoga on a regular basis, too.

First time in about three weeks, I was able to go grocery shopping with Rog. Forty minutes of steady walking and pushing the cart, picking up and loading foodstuffs. I've done about another thirty minutes of housework and now feel the need to rest for awhile. It's all good, though. Not going to take me as long this time to bounce back. Still 8 more days of the steroid which wreaks havoc with weight, but it is in diminishing increments so improving.

My goals for this are modified and aimed at simply being patient and gentle with myself, making sure I carve out a little time to take care of myself.

Our baby is due any day now and I KNOW that will keep me busy and alter our current schedule in a BIG way. However, I have a nice stroller with hefty wheels for handling these back roads for walks and I hope to get out for a walk or two during the week. It will depend entirely on the weather and the health of our wee one. In addition, I have made arrangements for a sitter twice a week for 2 hours so I can get to yoga. While I'll be getting to the studio less, I have signed up for the more vigorous classes so that's good! Also, I have a mat here (my good mat lives at the studio) so I can practice here. Added bonus, my best GF got me a Mommy and Baby yoga DVD so we can do yoga together (although I'm really thinking this will work better in the 3 month + zone). I have a bike too so MAYBE I can get some of that in. Kayaking will be happening as Daddy will be on the shore with the baby. I am in training for a river fest coming up next month. I got myself a new boat and am working to become really familiar with it, how it handles and it's tipping limits.

Food choices remain to be whole foods, lots of veggies and fruits. No big changes there.

If anticipation counts towards burning calories, I expect to drop a large amount of weight in the next week or two..LOL! Really though, I'll do what I can this month and be happy with whatever I do.

Happy May Everybody!

LOL...sounds good!

My first solo "flight" in over two weeks, walking to the car without the extra O2, then setting it up in the car, driving to the doc and back. Also well enough to pick up lunch and grandson. Light walking and playing with him, including some drumming. No qi gong, today.

Walked home from the station, carrying a bag of fruit... bending and stretching to find the 50p I dropped... came up with 5p and a 10Bani piece (Roumanian) so I think I'm about 43p down... Ah well, never mind.

Sorry I didn't start this last night. As usual, post your goals and accomplishments.


Starting back slowly from pneumonia, for today:

Drive self to doc and back
Fold laundry and put away
Modified qi gong, if I still have any energy left
More to follow in the days to come.:-)
